THE BONNIE BLUE FLAG
We are a band of soldiers United in this cause,
Defenders of our home and land And all the South holds so dear.
The call comes ringing o'er the land— Come join us in this band.
We hoist and hail the Bonnie Blue Flag That bears a single star.
Hoorah, Hoorah for the Southern rights so dear. Three cheers for the Bonnie Blue Flag That bears a single star.
We are a band of brothers Joined in a noble cause;
Fighting for our property We gained by honest toil.
And when our rights were threatened,
The cry grew far and near.
We'll hoist and hail the Bonnie Blue Flag That bears a single star.
Hoorah, Hoorah for the Southern rights so dear. Three cheers for the Bonnie Blue Flag That bears a single star.
